Michael Hart Captured in Northern Minnesota After Two-Week Manhunt

Deputies located the 40-year-old beneath a Cohasset basement stairwell following a public tip.

Overview

  • The St. Louis County Sheriff's Office says he was arrested Tuesday at a Cohasset home after an extensive search across the Iron Range.
  • Deputies report he refused to cooperate and assaulted them during the arrest.
  • A 29-year-old woman at the residence was arrested on a charge of aiding an offender.
  • Both are being held at the Itasca County Jail as they await arraignment.
  • Authorities say he left the Northeast Regional Corrections Center on Sept. 23 after texting "meet at spot," and a warrant shows he was detained on burglary and domestic-abuse charges tied to a Hibbing attack in which he was shot.
